Review of the Barclays, Current account:

Easy to open an account

I was a UK resident but not citizen recently arrived in the UK. I went to several banks to open an account but found them uninterested and unhelpful, except Barclays. Several years later I am still with them. Reviewed on: 15th February 2016

User Friendly App

I have found the app very easy to use and navigate through the pages. I was initially told about the app a few years ago by a Barclays staff. Although I was initially reluctant, I downloaded the app and its been the best decision I have made. highly recommended Reviewed on: 23rd December 2018

Simple, efficient and leading technology

5
I have multiple products with Barclays and my main banking relationship, I find the service impeccable. Barclays are extremely efficient, the mobile banking app is market leading. The app is a true banking companion, it offers seamless service between conducting transactions, enhanced information and control to direct call and automatic authentication. It is a central repositiory for my relationship with Barclays and I can do everything on the app which means I don’t need to call for assistance, Barclays also contact me periodically to ensure I’m satisfied which shows their caring and responsible nature. This partnered with excellent products makes Barclays my number one choice for financial services products. Reviewed on: 22nd December 2018
